The toxicities of A30P and A53T α-synuclein fibrils can be uniquely altered by the length and saturation of fatty acids in phosphatidylserine.

Abstract

Progressive degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the midbrain, hypothalamus, and thalamus is a hallmark of Parkinson's disease (PD). Neuronal death is linked to the abrupt aggregation of α-synuclein (α-syn), a small protein that regulates vesicle trafficking in synaptic clefts. Studies of families with a history of PD revealed several mutations in α-syn including A30P and A53T that are linked to the early onset of this pathology. Numerous pieces of evidence indicate that lipids can alter the rate of protein aggregation, as well as modify the secondary structure and toxicity of amyloid oligomers and fibrils. However, the role of lipids in the stability of α-syn mutants remains unclear. In this study, we investigate the effect of phosphatidylserine (PS), an anionic lipid that plays an important role in the recognition of apoptotic cells by macrophages, in the stability of WT, A30P, and A53T α-syn. We found PS with different lengths and saturation of fatty acids accelerated the rate of WT and A30P aggregation. At the same time, the opposite effect was observed for most PS on A53T. We also found that PS with different lengths and saturation of fatty acids change the secondary structure and toxicities of WT, A30P, and A53T fibrils. These results indicate that lipids can play an important role in the onset and spread of familial PD.

摘要

中脑、下丘脑和丘脑多巴胺能神经元的进行性退化是帕金森病 (PD) 的标志。神经元死亡与 α-突触核蛋白 (α-syn) 的突然聚集有关,α-syn 是一种调节突触小泡运输的小蛋白。对有 PD 家族史的研究发现了几种 α-syn 突变,包括 A30P 和 A53T,这些突变与这种病理的早期发病有关。大量证据表明,脂质可以改变蛋白质聚集的速度,并修饰淀粉样寡聚体和纤维的二级结构和毒性。然而,脂质在稳定 α-syn 突变体中的作用仍不清楚。在这项研究中,我们研究了磷脂酰丝氨酸 (PS) 的作用,PS 是一种阴离子脂质,在巨噬细胞识别凋亡细胞中起着重要作用,研究了 WT、A30P 和 A53T α-syn 的稳定性。我们发现具有不同长度和饱和度的脂肪酸的 PS 加速了 WT 和 A30P 的聚集速度。同时,大多数 PS 对 A53T 则产生相反的效果。我们还发现,具有不同长度和饱和度的脂肪酸的 PS 改变了 WT、A30P 和 A53T 纤维的二级结构和毒性。这些结果表明,脂质可以在家族性 PD 的发病和传播中发挥重要作用。
